The Canada-China plan lets you enjoy all the benefits of a Your Choice plan in both Canada and in China, Hong Kong or Macau. When selecting your choice of data to use or share with other subscribers on your account, you can opt for the Canada-China option. This allows you to call, text and use data while in Canada and in China, Hong Kong or Macau.

Calling and texting with a Canada-China plan

This plan includes unlimited calling, texting and picture and video messaging to phone numbers in Canada and in China, Hong Kong or Macau.

While in Canada, calling and texting phone numbers outside Canada, China, Hong Kong or Macau are subject to standard pay-per-use long distance rates. See telus.com/mobilityppu for details. If you have an international long distance calling or texting add-on, the rates of your add-on only apply when making international long distance calls or texts from Canada.

While in China, Hong Kong or Macau, calls to phone numbers that are outside of Canada and these countries are not included and will be billed at the roaming pay-per-use rate in China, Hong Kong or Macau. See the applicable pay-per-use rate on telus.com/travel. You can text numbers to any destination in the world for no extra charge, but texting premium and subscription numbers are not included.

While in China, Hong Kong or Macau picture and video messages that you send and receive will use your rate plan’s monthly data if you are not connected to Wi-Fi.

Using Easy Roam internationally with a Canada-China plan

As of February 19th, if you don’t have Easy Roam, you can text TRAVEL to 7626 using the mobile device on which you wish to add the service. Unfortunately, at this time you will not be able to add Easy Roam using My Account if you have a Canada-China plan.

Since your Canada-China rate plan covers all your usage while in China, Hong Kong or Macau, the $10 per day Easy Roam rate for China does not apply.

When using Easy Roam in an eligible international destination outside of China, Hong Kong and Macau, you can take advantage of the $10 per day rate to use your current plan’s minutes, text and data while travelling. Calls made to phone numbers outside Canada and the destination in which you are currently located are charged the pay-per-use rate for the destination from which the call was made. You can search the destination's specifications at telus.com/travel to determine the pay-per-use rate.

You can text numbers to any destination in the world for no extra charge. Note that texting premium and subscription numbers are not included.
